How a Hydraulic Motor Works

High pressure fluid is used to turn a shaft.

This is done in many different ways.

Much like a cylinder the power comes from the pressure acting over a large area and creating a large force.

The pistons for the motor are designed to be parallel to allow for continuously adjustable sweeps to make the hydraulic motor operate more efficiently. The speed of the hydraulic motor ranges from 1200 to 1800 rpm.
